"I am inspired by the talented management teams we meet and love hearing about their journey to date and ambitions for the future."

I'm an Investment Manager at Primary. 

I have been a member of the Investment Team since 2024, working across the business services and technology sectors. 

I am inspired by the talented management teams we meet and love hearing about their journey to date and ambitions for the future.

Prior to Primary, I gained a degree in Economics at the University of Warwick, and qualified as a Chartered Accountant at KPMG.
